Y...Hi Lisa, I am so glad you are enjoying the blog.<br />Yes, the apple turnovers will get soggy if refrigerated... or even after a few hours. It's the moistness from the filling that will make them soggy. I would suggest next time to fill, roll them up, butter them and place in fridge... bake before serving for best results. I hope that helps. Thanks for stopping by... and for taking the time to share your feedback.

The problem was I refrigerated them overnight to bring to a gatherning today and they were "soggy". Is that to be expected? I put them in the oven for another 7 minutes before serving them and that seemed to help crisp them up again. Should I have done something different? Thanks!

As you would before baking. Place them on a baking sheet, making sure they don't touch and having the baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Loosely cover them with a plastic wrap and refrigerate. Then remove plastic wrap and bake as directed. They should be good for a couple of hours. I've made them like that many times, they do very well.<br /> I would not par-bake...

Depending how ripe and how sweet the peaches are, you will probably need to adjust the sugar and cornstarch amount. <br /><br />If your peaches aren't especially moist and do not have a lot of juice, drizzle in a bit of water when cooking them...just to start them o break down a bit. <br /><br />Also, when cooking them down, you will want to not overcook them, as they will turn into mush. You still want the peaches to retain some texture.<br /><br /> It should definitely work with peaches...but you will need to taste and adjust a bit. Hopefully you will enjoy them:).Elliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18029231204593874635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8590241869561905455.post-57117131813372601412011-10-02T18:55:23.452-07:002011-10-02T18:55:23.452-07:00Ellie, I want to exchange the apples for yellow pe...Ellie, I want to exchange the apples for yellow peaches.... any suggestions, or should I follow the same recipe?Suenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8590241869561905455.post-46595223187576039542011-09-15T15:33:50.039-07:002011-09-15T15:33:50.039-07:00Oh, that's wonderful, Mary!
